\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJayden Ojeda’s #31 PremiAir Racing Chevrolet Camaro at Sydney Motorsport Park.<\/p>\n

The PremiAir Racing driver, who had been fastest in Practice 1<\/a>, was 14th in the order when he lost control of his #31 Chevrolet Camaro at Turn 5.<\/p>\n

The left rear of the car grabbed the Tecpro barrier though the front left corner hit exposed concrete.<\/p>\n

The Sydneysider extricated himself from the car before giving a thumbs-up.<\/p>\n

At the time of the stoppage, Aaron Cameron in the #3 Blanchard Racing Team Ford Mustang led the way.<\/p>\n

Ford occupied 10 of the top 11 positions, with Zach Bates the best of the Chevrolet drivers in second in the #10 Matt Stone Racing entry.<\/p>\n

The session was ultimately declared with four and a half minutes left on the clock.<\/p>\n

Qualifying at the Melbourne SuperSprint to decide the grid for Race 1 gets underway at 2:20pm AEDT.<\/p>\n

Results: Repco Supercars Championship Melbourne SuperSprint, Practice 2<\/p>\n
